No tangs in a 29 gallon While you are saving up, do some research on which fish would work in such a small tank.

Defintely a YWG, just give him time. They can change colors a bit when stressed.

I don't think that is the way to go. I think you should spend the hour or two it takes to pull your rock take him out and then reaquascape. JMO

It is all about the par, the output of the bulbs. Some 20k bulbs have more than some 14k or even 10k bulbs. That is why it is so important to go with a quality bulb and not some sleazebay piece of junk.

Pics?

Looking good, well done

Your call, but I like anglers.

Your local fish store(lfs) should have it. You could always get a ro/di filter for just over $100 and just make your own. As for going too fast, it is a common mistake. It is very excited to get started. If it were my tank, I would return the anemone. Just to be on the safe side, as you have...

I am contemplating between the 14k and 20k bulbs.

I am looking at hellolights, they list those as well as XM 20k, Ushio 14k, Ushio 10k, and a Aqualine 10k. They also have the bulbs you listed. Decisions, decisions I hear ya about the car biz, I sold them for about 4 years. But the way things are going, I went back to school. 2 weeks down now.

That's a small tank, I would just remove the rock until I got him.

Ok, good to know, thanks for the info. Bummed you sold the christmas favia, that was a nice piece. What kind of sps are you getting, you gotta talk to Mr. X, he has great corals.

Well, first off the anemone has no place in your tank yet. They should only be added to a tank that is mature (minimum 6 months,) they also require high lighting. Condy anemones aren't as light demanding as many anemones but good lighting is still required to sustain it long term. What kind of...

So it is bluer. Hmm, I like blue but I don't want it to be overwhelmingly blue. Problem is there is not many 70 watt bulbs to choose from.

What is in the tank now? As long as you keep your bioload low, weekly water changes will be all you need to do. I don't feel protein skimmers are a necessity on nano tanks, just weekly water changes of at least 10%.

Thought this video was cool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKPrGxB1Kzc

Let's see a picture.

How large is your tank? What else is in the tank? Reef or fish only?
